Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup grated zucchini
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup yogurt or applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan to ensure easy release of the bread after baking.
- Mix together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, yogurt (or applesauce), and vanilla extract until combined and creamy.
- Stir in the grated zucchini and fresh blueberries, ensuring the fruit gets evenly distributed.
- Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in another bowl.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture gradually, folding gently until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure to squeeze excess moisture from the grated zucchini for a better texture. Can be customized with mix-ins like nuts or swapped with gluten-free flour.
